# McAlister Family Law
McAlister Family Law is a specialist family law firm with offices across Manchester, Alderley Edge, Liverpool and London. Led by Managing Partner Amanda McAlister, a resident family law expert for BBC Morning Live, the firm distinguishes itself through its unwavering focus on placing children at the heart of every case and decision.
The firm serves individuals navigating complex family matters, including divorce, financial disputes, child arrangements and domestic violence situations. They work with married couples, unmarried partners and families requiring cross-border legal support. Their expertise spans contentious and non-contentious family law, with particular strength in safeguarding children's interests throughout proceedings.
What sets McAlister Family Law apart is their combination of award-winning legal credentials—recognised by The Legal 500 for their "excellent knowledge of the law and practice" and "high calibre of lawyers"—with a distinctly human approach. Rather than treating family law as purely transactional, they blend deep legal expertise with warmth and strength, recognising that clients are navigating emotionally challenging situations. Their breadth of services, from domestic violence protection orders to international relocation disputes, reflects genuine specialisation rather than generalist dabbling. The firm's commitment to being accessible and collaborative, evident in their reputation as "great collaborators," further distinguishes them in a sector often characterised by adversarial positioning.
